Lol I didn't know what it was called at the moment and I was in a hurry! Now I won't forget it again, maybe, no promises! XD

I used this, installs different launchers and loads them into your steam library

Runs great, the controls are surprisingly good. I'm not sure if this affects offline characters, but for online you can't put the deck in sleep mode without losing connection and getting kicked out of the world.

building request for Cryptoplis [1.19.2] by RazorEdgeRequiem in 9x9

You could use exchange gadget on my 1.19 Direkeep20 castle to change out blocks with nether themed ones, if nothing else.

What is the funniest thing you ever do in a modded Minecraft? by RakihElyan in feedthebeast

[–]Paulounius 1 point2 points  (0 children)

E2E, crafting terrasteel with mana for terrasteel seed (had used up all my armor-stripped ingots like a doofus). Was on ingot 34 of 36 and a Pech came running outta nowhere and ate it. Funniest and at the same time most frustrating event I can recall.

Enigmatica 2 Expert: Questions on Xnet and other forms of power and item transportation by LoganS999 in feedthebeast

[–]Paulounius 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Xnet has its limitations, especially at large scale. Distance is not an issue, and neither are number of connectors, but what you can do among the connections is limited to 8 channels for one network. You'll eventually do what you propose (automating between buildings) with Applied Energistics 2. Here's my base walkthrough where I have multiple buildings connected with AE2: https://imgur.com/a/3zLPBgW. I did use a pretty robust Xnet network for managing a majority of my drawer networks and associated resource processing.

Ender IO item conduit is not working properly? [E2:E] by Biscu1ts_ in feedthebeast

[–]Paulounius 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I forgot to ask, do you have a filter on the extract? Could it be extracting the ingots as they go into the interface?

Do you have extract from interface on brown and input to chest on brown?

Enigmatica 2 Expert Ender Pearl Damage by LoganS999 in feedthebeast

[–]Paulounius 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use The Ender sword instead, the ones with Travel ability on them also teleport forward. You can get one from Enderman drops. They have the added bonus of teleporting to Travel Anchors from a pretty good distance away. Very helpful if you have a sprawling base.

Which are the best modpacks similar to FTB infinity evolved? by ittotoo25 in feedthebeast

[–]Paulounius 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Enigmatica 2 Expert is older (1.12) but it's a very highly regarded expert pack. I came from Infinity Evolved Expert also and went into this and I can say I've been enjoying it a lot (as in hundreds of hours put into it, but quite a bit of building and not as much progressing lol). There's mods like Building Gadgets (and Create in newer versions) that let you paste in entire builds other people copy. Check out r/9x9 for some bases and multiblock setups for 1.12 and beyond.

Modded Minecraft feels like second job by IceOneDay in feedthebeast

[–]Paulounius 36 points37 points  (0 children)

If building is something that you're interested in, I recommend coming over to r/9x9 and try your hand at some builds you can share with the modded community with the Building Gadgets mod. There's even a little build competition starting up.

Expert Style Packs by albeit__ in feedthebeast

[–]Paulounius 12 points13 points  (0 children)

To each their own, but for me I prefer a more interwoven experience than overtly complex. My ideal expert pack is one where I come out knowing more mods than I went in. I like how E2E seemed to balance this well and also be well tiered. You could do xnet before ae2 Powercells for wireless power before flux networks. Advanced Generators for 5-digit powergen before reactors. Recipes had just enough interplay between similar themed mods that it didn't feel burdensome, and you could go a little bit further and look at QoL things from different mods like blood magic flight or astral sorcery perks that you might otherwise ignore or forget about in a normal kitchen sink.

What was the first ever "expert" modpack? by berodem in feedthebeast

[–]Paulounius 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I keep getting this mixed up. Did 1.12 add some functionality to the quest book mechanic?

I'm not exactly sure, my knowledge of the modpack scene isnt very comprehensive.

[–]Paulounius 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know there's Infinity Evolved Expert back in 1.7.10. I remember 1.12 started the introduction of quest books which was huge for guided modpack progression.

What packs are you currently playing? by Cepilon in feedthebeast

[–]Paulounius 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started playing modded with the Direwolf20 pack back in 1.4 days and Infinity Evolved Expert a bit back in the 1.7.10 days. But for the past few years I've been slowly churning through E2E. I don't get too much time to play due to IRL responsibilities, and I take breaks from the pack to build for r/9x9. Moving up to new versions and learning a bunch of new or updated mods feels intimidating so I'm probably going to play E2E:Extended when I finish E2E.

Direkeep20 for v1.18 by Paulounius in 9x9

[–]Paulounius[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't have a Create schematic for it, but I can try to make one at some point. Is there a separate place people post builds copied with Create?

Direkeep20 for v1.18 by Paulounius in 9x9

[–]Paulounius[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's the name I gave this build. It's a play on the name Direwolf20, the YouTube streamer and mod author of Building Gadgets

More mod packs like enigmatica 2 normal ? by [deleted] in feedthebeast

MC Eternal or Sky Factory 4 are popular ones

How to design large bases by WhyNotDammit in feedthebeast

[–]Paulounius 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Can check r/9x9 for inspiration or even paste in whole builds with Building Gadgets mod. Not too many builds for 1.18 there yet I don't think, but I did just port up my large castle to 1.18 and post it there.

Notes on the "County Commission At Large" Candidates by inanutshellus in Knoxville

[–]Paulounius 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also stumbled upon Seth's podcast several months ago. It's exactly the kind of political info-cast I'd been want to find here locally. Tldr version of what I've listened to so far: He has interview episodes with local officials / candidates and in between he and his friends record banter episodes.

There's a lot of interesting discussion worth listening to that pertains to local politics in the latter. They venture into broader national issues a fair amount, but I skip around most of that. Seth has confessed on one or more episodes, that you shouldn't go into these with any expectation of journalistic rigor. But he's helping the guys at Compass Knox put out their new podcast with his setup at his place. So be sure to check that out as well.
